[QUOTE="hayray, post: 818758, member: 3046"] My processor let my steer loose as I was unloading it, largely due to the most stupid set up and a mistake on their part sending another animal the wrong way down the chute towards mine. As a result they had to shoot my steer since there was no way to herd it back to the loading chute and we were on the edge of town next to a busy road. I haul them up a day ahead of time so that the adreneline and stress from shiping is over. I sure don't appreciate the fact that he ran around and then got shot, and then they slit his throat but I did not see much blood. It took about 15 minutes before we got him back to the shop and hung him up. He got dragged a couple hundred yards with a pick up and then pulled into the shop with a chain fall. Anyways, any time I know some one who had to shoot one like this the beef ended up tasting like crap. Any thoughts, what are the chances that this will turn out good? This was a choice steer, about 1300 lbs. [/QUOTE]
